The document summarizes key findings from a report on data and digital transformation across several countries. It finds that respondents in most countries spend too much time searching for the right data. While analytics have increased productivity, common challenges include disparate data sources and a lack of data skills. Countries differ in their analytics maturity and priorities - for example, respondents in France and Germany feel empowered as problem solvers through analytics, while other countries emphasize increased productivity.
